Maybe it's time for Ohio State to get back to college coordinators and leave the NFL where it belongs.

Arthur Smith and Matt Patricia are being out-coached by Chris Hampton (first year as Oregon’s full-time defensive coordinator) and Jay Johnson (second week calling plays after Drew Mehringer, who was in his first year as Oregon’s offensive coordinator, got fired).

Oregon starting wide receiver Jeremiah McClellan, who has missed the last six games due to an injury, is set to return to game action and play tomorrow when the No. 23 Ducks face No. 12 Ohio State, sources tell @CBSSports. Had six catches for 150 yards and a TD in Oregon’s opener vs. Boise State. Ranked second among Ducks wide receivers last season with 557 yards.

Ohio State (6-2) is No. 12 in part because the old farts on the committee didn’t like them giving up explosive plays against USC. OSU allowed two 40+ yard plays in that game, its first two such plays allowed this season. Ole Miss (6-2) is ranked No. 10, and has allowed 10 plays of 40+ yards Ole Miss’ overall explosive play rate allowed vs P4 comp (12.8%) is worse than Ohio State’s (12%). Ohio State’s best wins (No. 4 Indiana and No. 19 Iowa, both on the road) are better than Ole Miss’s best wins (No. 14 LSU, No. 18 Mizzou, both at home.) Both teams lost at Texas, Ohio State by 1 and Ole Miss by 7. Ole Miss’ other loss is by 24 points to No. 24 Florida. Ohio State lost by 12 points to No. 20 USC with a freshman quarterback. Sure.

Ohio State had allowed NO play longer than 36 yards before USC. Then: • Mosley: 69-yard TD • Bowman: 70-yard reception • Those 2 plays: 139 yards • USC's total: 338 yards • 2 plays = 41% of USC's offense Two USC plays accounted for 41% of their offense.
